I was wondering this myself, after seeing thier light show in all it's glory on Friday. I really think that they'll find a way to bring it with them. I'd be surprised if they just used bonnaroo's light set up. I'm almost certain that Bonnaroo would accommodate them with whatever they wanted to do. So I'm thinking that the screens will be there. I hope they combine the 2 myself, and blow our minds.
In regards to this, last year DMB brought thier entire lighting rig. Do not know in relation to Radiohead how they compare, but, DMB's is pretty massive. So, I don't see accomodating Radiohead being a problem for the stage.

I want them to have one of those behind-the-band "light bar" setups. You know, they had them last year at 10kl (when Widespread played?). I've seen a few photos of it at some Radiohead shows, I hope they bring the screen out and stuff though.
EDITED TO SAY: I googled stuff trying to find what their setup was in terms of their gear and instruments, I've never seen a Radiohead show, and some of the pictures look different to me.

it is different each tour...but they usually have something unique. i just thought the pictures looked cool from this years setup and always thought that their stage setup was an important part of their live experience.

they have like 5 or 6 wierd squares in back of the stage, they all show something differently, in the opener for the 6/1 show..the whole place was dark and all you can see was thom's eye in one of those little circles staring mischeivously at the crowd during the opening bars to "you and whose army"..its pretty cool..not as elaborate as previous tours but really cool.

actually it was more like 8 or 9 squares (actually they are not really squares, but som sort of wierd shape)..here is a decent shot of what i am babbling about.
Those look really cool. I wish they'd combine them with the light bars from previous tours, but I'm not gonna complain. I've seen them in Houston and St. Louis, and both times the lights and sound engineering was absolutely top notch for the performance. I'm sure they'll bring whatever they need to bring to Bonnaroo just like they do to any other amphitheater they play in.
I've seen them Outside 3 times, twicw at festivals, and they've always had the Light Bars. ...but that was a new video, and they may have ditched them.
Who really cares what lights the greatest band ever has? As long as they are playing their music!
